❝she was a beautiful dreamer.
the kind of girl who
kept her head in the clouds,
loved above the S T A R S
and left regret beneath the EARTH
she walked on.❞
“ALWAYS UNDERESTIMATE ME— makes my life a helluva lot easier. a guy who’s got no hope an’ a lot’a booze makes for a lot’a fun.”
❝it would be a lot easier to continue to underestimate you if you didn’t call my attention to the things you’re doing. luckily i find it amusing so i’m not terribly bothered, at least not enough to make a big fuss about it. i love my good fun too.❞
“AH SHIT—- we better head over there. i spiked it an hour ago. don’t wanna see a bunch’a kids drown the halls in puke if someone spikes it again.”
❝i should have never underestimated you dung, good luck getting to it now, at this point it’s already toxic and we’re all going to end up proper fucked over tomorrow.❞
“LOOK I’M JUST SAYIN’ —- you want in, it’s gonna cost you more than that. the buy in for these games ain’t cheap, despite how your handsome host looks.”
❝you’re haggling over a buy in to a silly game? these are students not high rollers upping the stakes.❞
he chuckled slightly, eyes softening as he looked at the girl in distress.
“girl as smokin’ as you? be an honor.” he was never one to pry, possibly didn’t care about anyone enough to. so he did what most do in awkward situations, he made a joke.
“do me a solid though, yeah? try an’ keep those eyes dry for just a lil’ longer. tears ain’t gonna taste too hot.” a subtle grin pulled at his lips as a curled finger tapped against her nose teasingly, calloused hands grazing against her face as he pulled her in toward him.
❝you flatter me sweets, don’t make me blush.❞
she laughed softly, slowly turning to face him, thankful for the way he tried to make her smile without necessarily getting into the subject. she appreciated the break from her thoughts.
❝yeah i think i can manage that much.❞
a faint smirk touched her soft lips as she watched him move closer, her teeth sinking into her lower lip as the anticipation of a kiss sent chills down her spine. she let out a soft moan of relief once his lips finally touched hers, providing a much needed distraction.
he couldn’t remember the last time he had spoken to lily evans, probably because the two weren’t exactly relevant to one another’s lives. she had her circle, he had his. as he neared her, a daring smirk on his features, he tried to recall the last time they’d spoken. LAST YEAR. he made a snide comment about her and james. memories were blurred, just as his vision currently was. booze and bud mixed wonderfully within his system. even through the haze he could see sorrow on lily’s face, whatever bullshit she had going on was plastered on her features.
“damn firecracker, i ain’t seen that kinda disappointment ‘fore someone kissed me since my mama,” he chuckled, a light expression wavering as she didn’t laugh. dung scratched the back of his head, weight shifting awkwardly as he took a look around at the lingering eyes surrounding them. with a hushed tone he question, “you alright, babe?”
❝i’m fine.❞ lily answered quickly, almost like a reflex when mundungus coaxed a response out of the otherwise quiet girl. she’d been lost in her thoughts, much too preocuppied to even bother donning her usual mask of happiness. the alcohol made her walls thinner, her guard much less effective.
❝just got a lot on my mind, nothing to worry about.❞
she waved off the concern the clung to his tone as she turned to look at him, a soft smile tugging at the corners of her lips.
